3. 10 core/lib/Drupal/Component/Utility/Unicode.php \Drupal\Component\Utility\Unicode::truncateBytes()

Truncates a UTF-8-encoded string safely to a number of bytes.

If the end position is in the middle of a UTF-8 sequence, it scans backwards until the beginning of the byte sequence.

Use this function whenever you want to chop off a string at an unsure location. On the other hand, if you're sure that you're splitting on a character boundary (e.g. after using strpos() or similar), you can safely use substr() instead.

Parameters

string $string: The string to truncate.

int $len: An upper limit on the returned string length.

Return value

string The truncated string.
